April 24, 2010, Barn Thang with Hanks & Company -
Hanks and Co provided a great night of entertainment. I believe a good time was had by all. It is so nice to see young folks getting involved in bluegrass.
Well, OK, I got behind posting the website. We had three shows since I last posted. The Grubb family was here in Nov. 2008, and they brought the house down. It was a cold night and the barn was packed with people. They did a super job.
Then on Feb. 21, 2009, the Lonesome Prairie Bluegrass Band was here. Again, at the risk of sounding repetitive, they put on an outstanding evening of entertainment. The place was packed, and from comments received, folks had a wonderful evening. Lonesome Prairie knows how to play fine music and how to entertain!!
On May 16, 2009, the Nickleville Road ran right into the Barn. This is another group of very strong musicians, who demonstrated their prowess for arrangement and style. And, by the way, a load of humor and fun. Another highly enjoyable evening of bluegrass music and fun. Somehow, Bobby Brite, the mandolin player got loose, and folks were too weak from laughing to get out of their chairs. We’ve just never had a bad band at the Barn.
September 20, 2008. A Barn Thang in Collinsville. Our Guest Band was Copper Canyon. With Tom Smith doing lead vocals, and the timeless Joe Hood on banjo, they were as good as I ever heard them. Lots of energy, a good ‘rowdy’ crowd, coffee, tea and snacks added up to a great evening of bluegrass and fun. Again the Lord provided PERFECT weather for the event, and the crowd was spilling out of the barn.
September 22, 2007 – A Barn Thang in Collinsville, TX. This is a free Bluegrass event. Here are some pictures from the September event. ![]()
